    Overview

    Hayagriva Puja for families in Panchganga Ghat

    Hayagriva Puja is the worship of Lord Hayagriva, the form of Lord Vishnu with the head of a horse, honoured as the lord of knowledge and learning. He is especially revered in the Sri Vaishnava and Madhva traditions of South India, often together with Goddess Lakshmi as Lakshmi Hayagriva.

    Panchganga Ghat lies on the northern part of Varanasi's riverfront. Its name is traditionally explained as the meeting place of five rivers, and it is one of the ghats pilgrims have long visited for a holy dip in Kashi.

    वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

    निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

    Vakratuṇḍa mahākāya sūryakoṭi samaprabha, nirvighnaṁ kuru me deva sarvakāryeṣu sarvadā.

    O Lord with the curved trunk and mighty form, radiant as a million suns, remove the obstacles from all my undertakings, always.Traditional Ganesha prayer

    Planning Your Puja in Panchganga Ghat

    The ghat is reached on foot through old city lanes; vehicles stop well short of it.
    Steps are steep and can be slippery, so plan carefully for elderly relatives.
    Kartik mornings are busy with devotees taking snan.
    Boats from the central ghats are another way to reach this stretch of the river.
    Water levels rise in the monsoon and the lower steps may be under water.
    Share the student's name, nakshatra and the exam or course.
    Keep books, pens and a notebook near the altar if your family follows that custom.
